    Pretty damm good

    Ive read a few other peoples reviews on here and i mustve watched a different film. O.k. theres nothing overly new here but the film is well made with good acting and does what it needs to at a good pace.

    I really liked it, as for 0 star reviews, baffles me

    Sooo boring !

    Not a horror by ANY means. One of those extremely annoying films where you expect it to be great but actually all of it takes place in about one place, in this case, a garage forecourt. Really really dull and predictable, nothing new. Deffinately would NOT reccomend this to anyone atall.

    Okay

    I was looking forward to seeing this film as it looked quite scary! I thought it was okay but the plot didn't develop in the way I thought it would of. The whole story is based in one location but I thought what happens would spread further and could of been a much better story than it was. It's okay but nothing special. The idea was good but I felt let down by the end result.

    cheap but good

    I ordered this film just for something to watch, but pleased I did.

    Mainly set in a petrol station, 3 people are trapped inside as a parasite tries to overtake them.

    Although some of the digital effects come across a bit cheap, the creature is original and creepy. Some good acting also keeps you watching.

    Definitely worth a watch if you are into your horror.

    A Real Gem!

    I was really impressed by what is supposed to be a low budget movie - personally for me this didnt show.

    It was really enjoyable to what a decent monster movie with a 'creature' reminiscent of The Thing but yet using a really imaginitive and original idea. The characters were likeable with the story hitting a really good pace from start to finish, fans of horror and a good bit of gore will be satisfied. The extras are also good, i particularly liked finding out how they picked the person to be in the monster suit, i always find looking at creature effects really interesting.

    I liked it so much that i ended up buying this to watch again - horror fans check it out!

    Awful

    This film was absolutely ghastly from start to finish. The effects weren't too bad, but both the storyline and the acting were appalling. I would definitely not recommend this film to anyone.
